This famous collection called Ten Nights of Dreams is ten connected short stories or ten connected dreams that have a surrealistic atmosphere. The author of this book, Natsume Suseki, is a novelist and researcher of English literature, who is considered one of the prominent figures of modern literature in Japan. Among his works, the story of We Are Cats is one of the most famous stories written by him and almost all Japanese people and even children who study in elementary schools are familiar with it. A picture of this famous writer has been printed on Japanese 1000 yen bills.
Ten Nights of Dreams is a small and mind-blowing collection by Natsume, which stands out from his writing style due to its opaque and surrealistic atmosphere compared to his other works. These ten brief stories are the stories he wrote for a Japanese newspaper in 1998, focusing on the dreams he had seen.
Like all his works, this work is very well crafted and contains very strange stories such as an old man trying to turn a rope into a snake and then committing suicide to deeply moving stories such as a blind child riding on the back of a homeless person. and their path finally reaches the place where the displaced person committed the murder. This book has been adapted by several Japanese directors to make movies, so reading this nail-biting collection will be a memorable experience for fans of Japanese literature and surreal stories.
